My children always loved little printable booklets. If you could color them, that made it even more delightful! Download this Going to the Dentist Booklet Printable, find some crayons or colored pencils, and enjoy talking about the going to the dentist!
While my children were not fearful of the dentist, I know that this is a challenge for many parents. In scary situations, I find that children can handle things a bit better when they know what to expect.
This Going to the Dentist Booklet will do just that!

Going to the Dentist Booklet Printable
Printable booklets are a great way to take teach a lesson, expose a child to a concept, or reinforce learning.
This Going to the Dentist Booklet Printable can be used in any of those ways. Read it with your child before a first visit to the dentist to explain what the visit might entail. Or you could read it when you return from the dentist and see if your child can identify any of the tools used!
This booklet would also be a good fit for Dental Health Month which occurs in February.
Another idea is to supplement your Community Helpers Unit Study with this booklet. It would be a great add-on that requires minimal preparation. Just print and go!
There are 5 pages included in this Going to the Dentist Booklet, however, please note that one page is a duplicate and you need to only print the girl or boy version that is applicable for you.

Why Should I Brush My Teeth? by Katie Daynes
The Berenstain Bears Visit the Dentist by Stan and Jan Berenstain
If you have children that are reading or starting to read, you can use this booklet for a quick phonics lesson.
Choose a word that your child would find difficult to read or spell and go over each sound of the word.
For example, this is how I would review the word ‘dentist’ with my child:
- Show that dentist is divided into 2 syllables and these are considered closed syllables because the vowel has a consonant behind it.
- Both syllables contain short vowels. Then review all short vowel sounds.
- The ST at the end of the word is a consonant blend. Brainstorm other words that end in /st/ and more words that begin with /st/. I would also have my child read through the list of ST words in Classical Phonics.
